Choosing a flattering lipstick color

I love nude color lipsticks because they give the appearance of style and glamour without looking made up. But my problem is that i have darker skin...tan if you will. I am not sure how to use nude colors with my skin tone???
If i just use nude lipstick, my face looks colorless. As a result, i end up using shades of red and burgundy all the time.

I like the soft dewey fresh look that nudes give.
Can someone please suggest how i can do that and what would be the best way to pick a flattering color, without having to use dark tones all the time.

I have the exact same problem but opposite cause I'm so pale most nudes wash me out. I would definitely go to a MAC counter or something & try out a couple ones & ask the SA to help. She found this orange/nude-ish color that gave me the nude lips :) Gluck!
